Vitamin B Complex for Coeliacs

I mentioned in this post some research, which investigated the “effect of B vitamin supplementation on plasma homocysteine levels in celiac disease”.  These were stated that they might lead to strokes.

I have since contacted the lead researcher, Muhammed Hadithi, and he said the following :-

Your option to take vitamin B complex supplement is in my opinion very justified and wise.

Our findings were also confirmed but probably not published by group of Joseph Murray in Mayo clinic. Coeliac is risk for hyperhomocysteinemia and secondary blood vessel disease that can be well compensated by taking vitamin B complex. These vitamins can not do us any harm anyway and the benefits outweigh their costs.

If this simple pill might have a positive and as there is unlikely to be harm, I have now started taking them.
